130 BRUNSWICK. Labour is well organised at Brunswick. The principal trade unions (most of which are of the “ Free” or Social Democratic type) are those of the metal workers, brewery workers, factory workers and labourers, and the workpeople engaged in the building trades. These organisations carry on a vigorous agitation and have secured an increase of wages in several industries. In connection with the Social Democratic Trades’ Federation, a Workmen’s Secretariate is carried on. Wages and Hours of Labour in the Principal Occupations, October, 1905. Weekly Hours of Labour.
